Slumberjack Film Festival

We are a new festival, established to elevate independent filmmaking. It is our belief that the indie filmmaker is the heart of our industry and our aim is to give individuals and organisations a platform to showcase their work.

Indie filmmakers are the future and deserve to be celebrated!

We want people to see that you don’t need a big budget or the backing of a major production company to create wonderful cinema. All you need is an idea and the drive to see it through.
